Everything you need to know about Oracle Fusion Application

Oracle Fusion Applications(OFA)
is a suite ofenterprise resource planningsoftware
applicationsfromOracle Corporation. It is distributed across various product
families; including

·Financial

·Human
capital management,

·Customer

and

·Project

Oracle Fusion Applications were envisioned and pitched as anenterprise
resource planningsuite - a combination of features and functionality taken
fromOracle E-Business Suite, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft and Siebel product
lines. The suite is built on top of theOracle
Fusion Middlewaretechnology stack; both layers implement theOracle
Fusion Architecture, which leverages the capabilities ofservice-oriented
architecture.

It was launched in September 2010 and released one year later at
Open World 2011

WHAT IS "ORACLE FUSION"

People often get confuse with this term .To start with, it will be
a good idea to know the difference between Fusion Applications and Middleware.
Oracle Fusion is composed of two parts:

Fusion middleware and Fusion applications.

·Oracle
Fusion Middleware aka FMW: Comprises of the Oracle Application Server and
other technology stack components that Oracle has acquired in past few years.

oFusion
Middleware is a family of middleware products covering areas like BI, Identity
Management, Content Management and SOA.

oEach of
these areas has its own stack of products. Fusion Middleware was previously
called Oracle Application Server.

·Oracle
Fusion Applications:

·Oracle
Fusion Applications is Oracle's next generation suite of applications that
eventually replace E-Business Suite. It will assimilate best of breed features
from:

oE-Business Suite

oJD Edwards

oPeopleSoft

oSiebel.

ORACLE FUSION ARCHITECTURE

Oracle Fusion Architecture (OFA) is a standards-based technology
reference architecture or blueprint for building applications. Note
that OracleFusionArchitecture is not a product,
and canbeusedwithoutlicensing
it from Oracle. Many organizations use it to write applications that can run on
Oracle Fusion Middleware or that compliment Oracle Fusion

Oracle Fusion Architecture is based on the following core
principles:

·Model
Driven: For applications, business processes and business information

·It’s
positioned as the next-generation Business Applications solution by Oracle

·It offers
the best-of-breed from enterprise solutions acquired by Oracle

·It’s
built on a service-oriented architecture and SaaS model.

Oracle Fusion Applications is an all-encompassing suite of Oracle applications
built for comprehensive business tasks such as enterprise resource planning
(ERP), customer relationship management (CRM) and human capital management
(HCM).

Fusion Applications has many different modules catering to
different aspects of business functionality. In addition to CRM and HCM,
modules include applications for financials, procurement, Governance, Risk
and Compliance (GRC) and supply chain management (SCM). Customers can adopt one
or more of these modules and run them in their own data center or in
a hosted or cloud computing environment.

The
Oracle Fusion Applications platform was built with flexibility in mind, so
companies can selectively add modules if and when it makes business
sense.

With the
initial release of Oracle Fusion Applications likely focused on point
solutions, most users will be concerned with how to integrate Oracle Fusion
Applications into their core applications. This will be a substantially easier
effort than migrating the entire core functionality

There are
options/proposed path which can observed in various Oracle papers.

Here’s a
plan for IT side which may be consider to be crafted roadmap for the future of
enterprise applications

1.Continue
on Your Current Path .That mean you need to evaluate the latest
Applications Unlimited releases Oracle Applications releases such as Oracle
E-Business Suite 12.1.3, PeopleSoft Enterprise 9.1, Siebel Customer
Relationship Management 8.2, and JD Edwards Enterprise One 9.1 for the
additional value they bring to the businesses .In addition to gaining value
today, you will be in a position to upgrade to Oracle Fusion Applications in
the future, if and when you choose.

oEBS ->
Fusion Apps

oPeopleSoft
Financials to Fusion Apps

oPeopleSoft
HRMS to Fusion Apps

oSiebel
CRM to Fusion Apps

2.Move to
Fusion Step by Step. You need to adopt standards-based technology
first. Consider Oracle Fusion Middleware as in-house new imitative and
developing skill sets in technologies such as Oracle Application Development
Framework, Oracle content management products, Oracle SOA Suite, and Oracle Web
Center. These tools will help you integrate, extend, and manage your
applications environment today and prepare you to add Oracle Fusion Applications
if and when you choose by upgrading one environment and then reemployment rest
whatever/whenever.

3.Upgrade
to FusionApplications. Decide (if and when appropriate.)
If you use any functionality that is not part of V1 but still see business
value in going to Fusion Apps, this may result in multiple Fusion Apps
instances.
